Closing, read my last message; there was no bug;
It turns out you cant do this with a number:
$MyNumber=1;
$MyStringWithANumber="Testing_$MyNumber_String";
it comes out with: Testing_
:P sorry. I fixed it.

> Note: $NewCount=CartCount+1;
The bug still exists; I just wanted you to know that the $ in front of
CartCount accidently got erased while editing the script for notations.
The script is working and in tact. I haved tested the output and more;
the bug is still there.

Description:
------------
Cookies:
I found that you can use multiple cookies, but a bug is preventing me
from numbering my cookies using a counter.
Example:
setcookie("This_1_cookie","Testing 1");
As you can see here, the "1" represents a counter, but in this case,
there are no $variables in its place; this will output perfect.
Now, take a number or any string with a number in it, and pop it in
there.
$i = 1;
$MyCookieName="This_$i_cookie";
setcookie($MyCookieName,"Testing 1");
If you have done exactly as above, you will see the following name in
your Cookie file: This_
It cuts off right before the number..
But if you tried the one at the top, you will notice the entire string
is there.
Why is this an issue?
Reproduce code:
---------------
$NewCount=CartCount+1;
# NewCount should be 1 now.. if not, you can make it 1.
setcookie ("CartCount", $NewCount, time()+259200);
$newcookie="Quantity[1] ItemName[$ItemName]
ItemDescription[$ItemDescription] ItemPrice[$ItemPrice]
ItemTax[$ItemTax] ItemShipping[$ItemShipping]";
$CookieName="Cookie_$NewCount_Name";
# Even if $NewCount was empty, it should still fill in the cookie name
with "Cookie__Name" But it doesn't.. It cuts off before the numeric..
BUT ONLY WHEN USING A VAR! I HATE THIS!
setcookie ($CookieName, $newcookie, time()+259200);
echo "NEW CART ITEM [$NewCount] <br>$newcookie";
}
Expected result:
----------------
In your temporary internet files, you will notice that the COOKIE'S
NAME will be cut off before the number, making it impossible to write a
number field to a string without SetCookie realizing (I have no idea
why, but I can't get it to work..) that it is not something other than
a typed string.
Can you guys figure out why I get this bug?
Is there a fix?
Actual result:
--------------
Cookie_
Quantity%5B1%5D+ItemName%5Bnnnnnnn%5D+ItemDescription%5BThe+Item+is+Tall%5D+ItemPrice%5B45%5D+ItemTax%5B5%5D+ItemShipping%5B15%5D%BB
